<p class="MsoPlainText">Each day, I promise myself not to try to solve all my 
life problems at once - nor shall I expect you to do so;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day,&nbsp; I shall try to learn something new 
about me and about you and about the world I live in, so that I may continue to 
experience all things as if they had been newly born;</p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day, I shall remember to communicate my 
joy as well as my despair, so that we can know each other better;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day, I shall remind myself to really 
listen to you and to try to hear your point of view and to discover the 
least-threatening way of giving you mine, remembering that we are both growing 
and changing in a hundred different ways,</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day, I shall remind myself that I am a 
human being and not demand perfection of you until I am perfect, so you 're 
safe;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day, I shall try to be more aware of the 
beautiful things in our world I'll look at the flowers, I'll look at the birds, 
I'll look at the children, I'll feel the cool breezes, I'll eat good food - and 
I'll share these things with you;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day, I shall remind myself to reach out 
and touch you, gently, with my words, my eyes and with my fingers, because I 
don't want to miss feeling you;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Starting each day, I shall dedicate myself again to the 
process of being a lover - and then see what happens.</p>
